Auto upgrade for non English install

[estevaosoares]

Hi guys ;)

It's possible not to be notified about the update on Wordpress panel until the Wordpress in the language that is installed is read?

Look at my case... My install is a pt_BR and pt_BR is not ready yet. I just updated so... what to do now?

My widgets are not working at all and I have a misc of English/Portuguese on menus.

see #8729. should no longer occur.

I'm not sure this is a dupe. For me, it sounds as if the reporter asks for a feature: He only wants the "Update is available" message, if the update is already available in his locale.

In his case, he updated his pt_BR version to the us_US (as pt_BR was probably not yet translated completely and therefore not yet released). That led of course to having English strings in his menus, simply because they are not yet available in pt_BR.
Now he asks, if it's possible to only get notified once his locale is available as an update.

Might still be invalid or wontfix though.

@estevaosoares: You'll need to manually copy the (once completely translated) pt_BR.mo file into your "languages" subfolder to get all strings in your language.

No no, it's totally a dup of #8729. See r11273 -- the message he requested was added in 2.8. He didn't get it because he was upgrading from 2.7.1 or earlier.

That's right I'm upgrading from 2.7.1 to 2.8 but my problem has nothing to do with the #8729 ticket...

I want that "Update" appears when my locale translation is ready. The Solutions is pretty simple if it's just copy the pt_BR.mo but... It's a little annoying and can be avoided.

Thanks for your reply.

[Denis-de-Bernardy]

right. that's pretty much what r11273 does. If the locale isn't ready, it ends up saying (in 2.8 onwards):

"This localized version contains both the translation and various other localization fixes. You can skip upgrading if you want to keep your current translation."

[Denis-de-Bernardy]

The message could arguably be enhanced, but it definitely adds a notice when the localization doesn't match.

Ok, you're right. I didn't read that thread till the point where the new notice is introduced.
